echoes of summers

The curse is gone.
The summer girl survived.

New life tastes like freedom.
And Ishika intends to devour every second of it.
She refuses to be stuck anymore.
But freedom is its own kind of terrifying.

With Cousins changed forever and the past she can't fully piece together, Ishika is forced to face the one question she never had the luxury to ask:

Who is she... when she isn't fighting to stay alive?

While she is learning how to live, others are learning how to lose.
Some hearts are healing. Some are breaking quietly.
And some loves refuse to stay buried - no matter how many oceans or years lie between them.
And the past has a way of following you, even into the brightest chapters.

Some summers stay forever.
Some fade.
And some return as echoes.
